"Being seniors we can no longer do the little or big things that go with home maintenance. We contacted "OUR NEW HANDYMAN " for several projects around the house, Dryer vents cleanout, custom made me a AC window unit brace, my husband is pretty much bedbound and has different temperature needs sometimes. He pulled out my fridge vacuum behind. Also turned our king size bed . Fixed a sagging porch ceiling . He was great. Looked around and noticed that a LED light fixture is going down, and will be back to replace. A great guy, left everything in good shape, cleaned everything up. Felt safe with him in my house an important thing for seniors. Highly recommend him."

"His carpenter Randy was very meticulous and even pointed out and corrected some dangerous shortcuts my previous contractor had made. He committed to the job and completed the job in a timely manner. I actually hired him again for a second job and he secured 3 other jobs while working on my home... Definitely will call on them again if needed!"

"Super professional. My house has an old fence that's mostly rotted. The whole back portion was falling over and the gate had literally pulled the post it was in apart. I can't afford to replace the entire fence but Dustin was able to replace only the posts I needed to keep everything up. It's been months since then and his fixes are still going strong."

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

The cost to hire a handyman can vary, with most charging on a per-hour or per-project basis. On average, expect to pay between $50 and $150 per hour, with a typical rate around $90 per hour. For project-based work, the average cost is about $400, though the total can range from as low as $180 to $1,500 or more. Some handypeople may also require a minimum flat rate, such as payment for two hours of work.

Several factors influence the final cost, including:

  • The type, size, difficulty, and complexity of the job

  • The amount of time the work takes

  • The handyman's experience level

  • Your geographic location

  • The cost of materials and any necessary permits

  • Accessibility of the work area and potential travel costs

Additionally, you may encounter higher rates or extra fees for emergency services or work scheduled during holidays.

To install or move washer and dryer hookups, you will likely need a combination of professionals. A plumber can handle the water supply lines and drain pipes. If you have a gas dryer, a plumber certified for gas lines or an HVAC specialist will be needed to run the gas line. An electrician is required to install the correct electrical outlets. For simpler jobs, a local handyperson may suffice, while a contractor might be needed for tasks like drywall repair for the new vents.

Almost all houses require soffits. The exception is in houses where you know without a shadow of a doubt there is adequate airflow throughout the entire house including, and most importantly, the attic. Almost all modern homes have soffits installed whether you notice them or not because on most homes, the roof eave extends beyond the walls of the home, naturally creating soffits.

If a contractor is in breach of your contract, sometimes it is possible to collect damages for unreasonable delays. However, such claims can be expensive and difficult to prove. If there’s a way to complete the work and maybe negotiate for a discount for some of the inconvenience, that might be a simpler and cheaper way to resolve any disputes.

While handypeople do not need to be licensed in many places, you should only hire insured pros for any home improvement work. Your handyperson should have active liability coverage that protects them and you in the case of an error or accident. Furthermore, if they have employees on your property, they should also have workers’ compensation insurance. If you hire an individual or a company that is not insured and they damage your property, have an accident while on the job, or become injured on your property without insurance, you can be held financially liable.
